What a snow show Georgina! 

The Town is declaring a Significant Weather Event and a Winter Maintenance Event, effective today, Feb. 15, 2025, at 4 p.m. Parked vehicles must be removed from all Town roads until further notice.

As per the Ontario Municipal Act, a municipality may declare a significant weather event when a weather hazard, either forecast or occurring, has the potential to pose a significant danger to users of the roadways in which they have authority. This declaration suspends the standard timelines required for municipalities to meet their winter maintenance objectives. 

The Town’s winter maintenance event will be lifted, effective 2:30 p.m., Friday, Feb. 14, 2025. The significant weather event is also ended. 

Residents should be advised that crews will continue to work on cleaning up sidewalks throughout Town this evening and tomorrow morning. 

Thank you to all residents for their cooperation and patience.
